Recognizing the exponential need and demand of luxury and business accommodations in the bustling Muntinlupa and upscale Alabang area, The Bellevue Hotel, the destination of choice in the Southern Metro Manila, is stepping up to the challenge. With three expansion projects for the South and a beach resort underway, The Bellevue is redefining boundaries and changing the face of the hotel industry once more.
“With the very large volume of corporate accounts and long staying guests from Laguna, Cavite, Batangas, Alabang, Muntinlupa and Paranaque, the demand for rooms are exceptionally high, prompting us to create a new wing to cope with the booming market” says Bellevue Marketing & Communications Director Ryan Chan. The Bellevue Executive Tower is expected to fill in this void with its 250 rooms, capping the hotel’s room count to 470. Expected to open by the first quarter of 2009, the Executive Tower builds on the strengths and beauty of its predecessor and adds a bit more. Bellevue’s General Manager Patrick Chan states that with the Executive Tower, “we are giving back to the community whose continued patronage made us who we are. We are giving a whole new Bellevue experience of comfort and luxury”.
The Executive Tower’s architecture is done by Archs. Esteban and Gavino Tan with its interiors by Arch. Arlen de Guzman, the same team behind the original and stately Bellevue Hotel. The new wing boasts of a rich Asian-inspired design mixed with post-modern interiors, evoking a sense of beauty and timelessness. Aside from its luxurious rooms, the Executive Tower will also have 2 specialty dining outlets: a Chinese restaurant with a seating capacity of 200 guests and a Japanese/Korean one for 100, providing a rich multicultural dining experience. It’s leisure bar boasts of a two-storey wine cellar as well as an outdoor area to chill out and listen to good music. Designed to give the most comfortable stay a hotel can give in the Metro Manila, The Bellevue brings to reality the vision of ultimate comfort and convenience.
Adding to The Bellevue’s family of hotels is a smaller one with 150 rooms to be built at the heart of the business district of Alabang at Madrigal Business Park. Targeted for cost-conscious businessmen and travelers, the smaller hotel will still have the quality, standards and class of the original property but with more selective services and amenities, without sacrificing the trademark Bellevue quality and space every guest needs.
With the prevalence of the tourism and retirement market, The Bellevue is also set to build their very own high end residence named The Bellevue Residences. To rise beside the Executive Tower, The Residences will feature one, two and three bedroom units and is geared to be a high-end premium residence, complete with its own spa, gym and swimming pool. Only 150-200 units will be built to ensure spacious units for each resident in the 26 storey tower. The Bellevue Residences is envisioned to be the South’s icon building, representing the thriving and flourishing locale of Alabang.
After dominating the Southern market, The Bellevue sets its sights on the island paradise of Bohol. With the groundbreaking of the resort tentatively set on the first quarter of 2008, the master plan for the luxury resort is to have 200 rooms, including beachfront villas. With a lofty goal to be the best resort hotel in Bohol, the resort, to be designed by Recio-Casas, will offer a 200 meter beachfront, 2 swimming pools, including a 4 meter dive pool, a rejuvenating spa village, and a majestic ballroom good for 300 people. Located 15 minutes away from the airport, Bellevue Bohol is gearing up to be the luxury haven at Panglao’s virgin beach paradise. For those looking for their own romantic island getaway, each ocean villa will have a private plunge pool and their special beachfront honeymoon suite will have its own infinity pool.
From conquering the Alabang market to the verdant landscape of Bohol, The Bellevue continually reshapes satisfaction and luxury. With an unwavering commitment into serving the needs of the community, The Bellevue shines on and adds a touch of class to our lives.
